If XX female and XY male then XYY are not males. See how that’s a problem for you?

I agree, that is an extremely stupid thing to say.
Agree to disagree.
XYY ?
So that’s a no then. Made a bit of a fool of yourself there didn’t you?
You know trans adults *exist* right? This is the same, dumb “being gay is a choice” logic all over again.
So weird how she holds so many of the same views as and retweets people who have said things exactly like that and worse.
Can you point to an example of trans female rapist prisoners affecting her in any way whatsoever? Can you point to a study that calculated the rate of rape committed by trans women in women-only prisons?
Sure, it’s right by the example of trans female rapists systemically raping female prisoners.
That’s a nice sentiment in theory, but again, J.K. Rowling has been saying this shit for years. I gave her the benefit of the doubt at first, and she has doubled-down over, and over, and over.
People don’t hate sequels. People hate when it seems like every other movie is a sequel, prequel, remake, or reboot, because it’s seen as a lack of originality.

No, just two very specific women.
Why would you read what she says in good faith when she has been beating this drum for years, refuses to listen to arguments against her position, and has amplified far more explicitly hateful and toxic voices. Fuck her.
Yah, I was just trying to start shit. My friend showed me You’re Next, and I couldn’t understand what was great or exceptional about it. The fact that he knew I generally don’t connect with horror movies and insisted I watch it with him anyway made the experience even more bizarre for me. Adam Wingard went on to…
Rape is bad.
But that implies watching You’re Next over and over. *shudder*
